UIUC vs Fordham

Currently deciding between UIUC or Fordham for my final spot in my admission process ( currently a senior in high school). I know that both do place I just want some opinions on which should take the final spot in terms of IB placing as well as student life.

I think UIUC might be a bit better. I attended Fordham but transferred out so I can dm if u have more specific questions.

 

I just took a look at the target school lists on WSO and saw UIUC was a bit higher than Fordham. Honestly they’re both probably comparable so maybe choose which schools you would enjoy more socially.
